noise from front,wheel bearing??

Ok, I am trying to be optimistic here,the wifes fl2 has a droning from the front of the car ,when turning left the drone increases ,I hope its a wheel bearing and not front diff or transfer box.What would be the approximate cost to replace the bearing hub?

Just had my front nearside done by my local INDY - £213.00
Like you I wondered exactly what the noise was.
It was dfiagnosed by putting the car up on their lift, then raising front wheels off the ramp.
They spun each wheel in turn and listened for the noise while at the same time holding the front suspension coil spring.
No noise or vibration from offside, but a low rumble and a definite vibration felt through the coil spring. Tattoos - Why would you choose to look like the wall of a public toilet?
